A Few Things I Forgot & a Winner!

I'm in the middle of a lot of projects at the moment, so I don't really have much to share today. I feel like I've been sitting on this pictures for a time just like this!

This is a rocket pillow I made for Finn for Christmas. Perfect for his space room! The pattern is from a great book called One Yard Wonders.

These are the scarves I made for the whole family at Christmas. The first three are from Living with Punks and the

the final one (mine) I made with leftover quilting scraps. I've gotten a lot of complements on it!

I'm a little addicted to making these frames lately. We always get a certain portrait package at Christmas and it comes with a 10" x 13" picture that I never hang because I don't have a big enough frame. I made this one for it to go on my entry table. The fabric flower is made from leftover quilt batting scraps.

And finally I made a frame for Finn's room. Another space-themed entry.

And I am very happy to announce that the winner of the Valentine picture frame is Crystal from Our Path Thru Life! I will be contacting you for your info so I can get your frame out to you in time for V-Day!

By the way, I am raising money through the OKC Rock-N-Bowl for Junior Achievement. This is a great organization that helps prepare youth for the real world by educating them about finance and economics. If you would like to donate I have a widget on the right-side of my blog. I guarantee that your money will go to a great organization!

Valentine Banners & My Very First Giveaway!

I have been rather excited about Valentine's Decorating this year. Pink has certainly grown on me since I had a baby girl!

Here's my kitchen:

I just finished this banner. Spelling out all of "Happy Valentine's Day" seemed daunting, so I just went for "X" and "O":

This plate was so simple with the Silhouette! I just bought a plate from the Dollar Tree and cut the vinyl for the middle. Took less than 5 minutes:

I used the flowers to decorate for Thanksgiving, but I thought they complemented the existing colors of my kitchen, so they stayed. Here's a Mod-Podged X & O I made last year at a craft night:



I made a second banner too. This one is for my mother-in-law's classroom:

And now, (drumroll, please!) for my first giveaway!

Right in time for Valentine's Day, I have this uber-pink wood picture frame!
